DJT is a monster.

Last edited Thu Aug 15, 2019, 10:59 PM - Edit history (1)

The only thing that holds him back from extra judicial killing, and worse, is what remains of the rule of law. A monster. It hit me today.

EDIT: “You’ve got to give him credit. How many young guys - he was like 26 or 25 when his father died - take over these tough generals, and all of a sudden... he goes in, he takes over, he’s the boss. It’s incredible. He wiped out the uncle, he wiped out this one, that one. This guy doesn’t play games.”

Trump on Kim Jong-un, impressed by psychopathic murder.

He is also the biggest coward alive so is likely incapable himself of committing much violence against any male or any woman bigger than him.

If putin said "i am going to arrange to have the city of "fill in the blank, USA" gassed, everyone there will die from the gas and all you have to do is pretend you dont know anything about it, and then we will do your hotel deal and then I will give back all the documents showing you have been laundering our money for over 30 years"

Rump wouldnt hesitate NOT because he is a monster in the FEELING kind of way, but because he simply doesnt understand that human life has value other than his and always, 100% of the time with no exceptions ever, chooses money over anything else, always.


THAT is who 45 million of your neighbors ADORE

and more anger for anyone who allows him to commit this torture and violence and so on.

ANYONE who even passively lets him off the hook from your barber to your representative is GUILTY of all his crimes.

only external limits I think, which is why GOP lawmakers bare the ultimate responsibility. It has taken me some to get my head around what my heart is telling me. At some level there's still shock - this man is the president, as in The President.

I still find myself shocked. It is impossible to fully comprehend that he is The President.

I agree he would happily have people erased if the option was presented to him. And I bet he would feel SO extra bigly powerful as other people did the actual work.

With his personality and track record in life, he's approximately the worst person in the world to give Power to and Republicans were like, "Wow, he hates President Obama SO much! Nominate him!"

Labeling him as mentally ill gives him a pass on his behaviors because nobody chooses to be mentally ill. Trump chooses to be who he is and it requires no psychiatric diagnosis.

You can be mad, you can be bad, you can be mad and bad. These are not exclusive categories.

is at the core of his psyche.

Trumpism is fundamentally anti-Western and anti-democratic

amazing how he gets 90% support from Republican voters, many of whom are not his MAGA base, and should 'know better'.
